Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello... we celebrated our family Thankgiving holiday twice... once here a week early with Glenn's family and then again on the wonderful island of Aruba, at Amazonia restaurant. Ben was thrilled when all of the wait staff started singing in Spanish to another diner. The weather in aruba was awesome as always. It is so nice to be out at midnight and not feel even a hint of coldness. Ben spent most of his time in the shade and so did I, entertaining him. Julia learned to love a virgin Strawberry daiquiri and Zachary mastered the game of roulette.







No travel problems at all, Ben was so good on the airplane in both directions. He'll never be that good again, not even a peep out of him during takeoff and landing. Our hotel was great, we had a 2 bedroom villa at the Marriott Surf Club. We all enjoyed using their lazy river and Julia loved the water slide area. We enjoyed Happy hour, too.

Most of our trip was spent reading and relaxing, I walked Ben a lot of the time. Glenn and Zachary rented ATV's and toured the undeveloped areas of Aruba. Here is a photo of how dirty they were afterward.




We had a fun night at Carlos and Charlies, with our yards of ice cold beer. I wish we could go every year.


So, here it is 30 days until Christmas, my favorite time of the year. It will be a lot of fun this year.
